Styling Products -Nexxus - Gorgeous Curls Curl Enhancing Foam Styler

It has nothing to do with defining the curls or waves. It makes my hair stiff but with no shape. The only good thing about it is the smell but it's on the heavier side IMO. Way too expensive for the quality..

I like this shade of red. I'm not really a waitress has a little pink in it and it looks great on me but my favorite is still pretty at the premiere.

Whenever I have this great shade of red, everybody asks me what it is.. Even before me leaving the nail salon, people stop and ask me which color I picked... It's such an amazing and sexy color.. Maybe it's because it matches perfectly with my skin tone (NC 20-25).. highly recommended..

Eye Makeup Remover -Lancome - Bi-Facil Double Action Eye Make-up Remover
rated 3 of 5
devrim 7/11/2009 12:44:00 PM

I think this is an overrated product. There are several similar products out there for much cheaper. It does a good job removing even the waterproof makeup (after a lot of rubbing though) but as I said you can get it for cheaper. Plus I hate the packaging. You have to shake the bottle before using right. But a couple of drops spill each time if you do it with the lid closed. I tried to open the lid and shake the bottle with my finger closing the hole on top but it's not convenient. I definiteley won't purchase again.

Eyeliner -Estee Lauder - estee lauder automatic eye liner
rated 2 of 5
devrim 7/4/2009 10:22:00 PM

Makes me look awfull 10 mins after application. I look like a racoon no matter how I try.. The color is a nice black and the price is ok since you get 2 for the price of one but I don't even know what to do with my two barely used eyeliners.. Probably will give as a gift to someone I don't really like:))

Sunscreen -Clinique - City Block Sheer Oil-Free Daily Face Protector Broad Spectrum 25 SPF
rated 3 of 5
devrim 6/21/2009 2:13:00 PM

It's an ok product but broke me out horribly like many other clinique products I've tried so far. It gives some coverage and doesn't feel greasy. But unfortunately I had to return it.

Liquid -Estee Lauder - Enlighten [DISCONTINUED]
rated 5 of 5

It's such an ironic situation. I found my HG foundation when it's being discontinued. It has everything I want: sheer to medium coverage, lightweight, natural look, perfect color match, no shine on my T-zone even after several hours and no reactions so far. I hope they change their minds and keep producing this perfect product..

I just couldn't explain myself why I was paying that much money for a TM that has zero coverage and no moisturizing effect.. and returned it.

Foundations -Prescriptives - Virtually Fresh-All [DISCONTINUED]
rated 2 of 5
devrim 5/31/2009 8:14:00 PM

It's very unfortunate that this product didn't work for me. I liked the light consistency and the medium coverage a lot. I have combination skin and this foundation was perfect for keeping my T-zone looking good even after a couple of hours. But there's a catch. Eventhough the color was a perfect match initially (I got natural beige) it turns to orange after 1 hour. Plus my husband hated the scent which is pretty strong and lasts long. I'm returning it!

Eye Makeup Remover -Estee Lauder - Gentle Eye Makeup Remover

Horrible product. I am being punished again for shopping without checking MUA first. This product has nothing to do with removing makeup and stings my eyes badly. I can't believe Estee Lauder has such a product to ruin its reputation.

Fragrances -Chanel - Chance
rated 3 of 5
devrim 5/21/2009 1:32:00 PM

We were just walking by the perfumes in a department store and I saw the tester for Chance. I wanted to give it a try. My husband loved it and I ended up buying it. I feel like the perfume I got is different than the tester version. Tester smelled fresh and floral. But my Chance is nothing fresh... In fact it gives me a heavy feeling everytime I try wearing it. It has an unbelievable staying power (it stays on my clothes for days) but it's something I don't like since I will keep this perfume for special occasions where I want to be noticed...

Shampoo -Nexxus - Therappe Shampoo
rated 5 of 5
devrim 5/21/2009 1:24:00 PM

Best moisturizing shampoo I've ever tried.. Smells great and doesn't make my hair greasy like some other moisturizing products do. It's expensive but worth every penny and lasts forever since all you need is a dab.

Liquid -Bobbi Brown - Skin Foundation SPF 15
rated 2 of 5
devrim 4/12/2009 10:04:00 AM

As one of the previous reviewers said, I feel like I have a totally different product when I read the reviews for Bobbi Brown's Skin foundation.. I went to the store to try their TM but the SA recomended this instead. I have combination skin which is usually on the dry side. It takes too long this foundation to settle into my skin and dry to a natural looking face. This look lasts about 1 hour and then my T zone gets super shiny and oily. It is completely gone by the end of 4 hours. I tried it with and without my regular moisturizer and result was the same. I gave this product 2 lippies only because it's really feels light and it's what I was looking for.

Mascara -Revlon - Beyond Natural Mascara [DISCONTINUED]

I bought this because of BOGOF offer and I wanted to try their age defynig spa foundation. Both were disappointment (thank god i didn't spend a fortune).. This mascara gave me racoon eyes and was difficult to clean with eye makeup remover. It clumped badly, but I don't know whether it was the horrible brush or the mascara itself?

Liquid -Revlon - SPA Age Defying Foundation [DISCONTINUED]
rated 2 of 5
devrim 3/27/2009 3:21:00 PM

This was the first time I tried a DS brand for foundation and I have to admit that it's because of MUA reviewers. This product was a dissapointment since I trust the reviews here. But it's definitely a bad foundation IMO. It gave me a good coverage and I was ok with the built in brush, but the feeling was horrible. It's very liquid at first and dries quickly. I found it not very easy to apply because of being too liquidish and surprisingly it dries too much. I applied my regular moisturizer first but still, 20 minutes after the application of foundation, my face felt terribly tight and dry. I couldn't stand it and washed my face right away. I gave it a try 3 times (once with a different moisturizer) but it was the same problem each time. And I never applied powder on top...
